Jeremy Szteiter has been working in adult education for the last 12 years by managing, developing, and teaching programs to lifelong learners, with a focus on the ways that learning happens through teaching others. Most recently, he has worked in a number of community education environments, where projects have included the development and teaching of a health-based information literacy course for a local hospital and coodinating and teaching in the technology education program for a non-profit agency. Audiences of his teaching have ranged from advanced engineers learning to use complex expert systems that solve large-scale industrial challenges to adults seeking job-readiness skills while preparing to earn their GED diploma.
Stemming from an undergraduate degree in Cognitive Science (Carnegie Mellon University) and a Master’s degree in Critical and Creative Thinking (UMass-Boston), Jeremy focuses on engaging learners with each other to increase self-awareness of their own thinking as well as understand the content itself. He has experience in both developing computer technology and utilizing it in education and is a constant seeker of the appropriate and well-balanced use of both modern technology and traditional approaches as resources for learning and teaching.
